Well not much got done tonight. Had to run into Springfield to pick up some Kerosine for the ole' heater. Did get the 76 Front End drug in to finish tearing it down though. Also have all the nuts soaking in PB Blaster so that maybe tomorrow I can get it torn apart a little easier. Here a few pics. Also posting a few pics of the frame without the rear cab mount and the front bed mount.

I have decided to have the frame sandblasted to remove all the old paint and rust and then spray it down with POR's etching spray so the POR will adhere to it. Can't decide if I want to take the Carrier Bearing Mount out of the center cross member or not. I want to go one piece driveshaft. And if I do so after spratying the POR I will have bare metal spots and I don't like the thought of that. Too many decisions....
